    Decide my caliber

    Leaving on a spike/mgmt type elk tag in a few, pick my caliber.

    7mm-08 our of a Tikka SL T3
    6.5 CM out of a X-Bolt

    Both are deadly accurate, just don’t know what I want to in the mountains for a few days

        Take both, leave one in the case when you go hunt, I never go to camp with just 1 rifle.

          He’s right!

          Both can be equally effective given proper ammo

            X2, but carry the 7mm-08 first choice, and good luck.

              That’s easy! Buy another rifle, 308 or 3006, then you’ll have 3 elk killers!

                This. Always have a backup.

                  Always take a 2nd rifle. Stuff happens.

                    I don't travel 2 hours with one rifle much less 2 states

                      I would take the 7-08. It’s an impressive round that I have seen kill big stuff!

                        Out of those two rifles I’d pick whichever had a better suited optic for your needs.

                          Splitting hairs, I agree with taking them both.

                            7-08 for elk 6.5 for shooting flies in camp.

                              Do you have any big game calibers?
